Synopsis

The remote device is missing a vendor-supplied security patch.

Description

The isMail transport in PHPMailer before 5.2.20 might allow remote attackers to pass extra parameters to the mail command and consequently execute arbitrary code by leveraging improper interaction between the escapeshellarg function and internal escaping performed in the mail function in PHP. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2016-10033. (CVE-2016-10045)

Solution

Upgrade to one of the non-vulnerable versions listed in the F5 Solution K73926196.
